RPGuns
by Momoko
RPGuns, a Forge mod for 1.20.1 by Momoko, adds craftable firearms with unique stats and custom 3D models to the game.
What it does
Five firearms are available: a Pistol that serves as a reliable sidearm with a 6-round magazine and moderate fire rate, a Hunting Rifle that is high powered and single-shot, a Shotgun that fires 5 pellets per blast with a wide spread, and a Tommy Gun fed by a 30-round drum magazine with rapid fire. Weapons and projectiles use custom 3D models and textures, and bullets are consumed from the inventory when a reload takes place.
Reloading with R plays a timed animation, and a toggle silencer mutes fire and reload sounds on each weapon. Zoom with Z gives scoped aiming on supported weapons such as the Rifle and the Tommy Gun, with pinpoint accuracy through the scope. The mod is intended primarily for MCRPs.
RPGuns runs on client and server, so both the server and every player need it. Server owners can adjust settings through rpguns commands or the rpguns-server.toml config file, which covers the full server-side configuration. The mod is published for Forge only, and the latest file is 1.0.1 for 1.20.1, released 2026-04-18. The code is under All rights reserved, so it is not open source.
